Madongo is arrowroot starch..what we call the last stage of the starch..can't tell you the exact procedure but the bakes are divine
Tri tri are tiny.....microscopic almost fish caught at the river mouth that we make cakes with.
I luv #18-21
I guess Tri tri is a kind of fish.
Black sand beaches...huummmm must see that for myself one day.
: 9:32 PM Number one should definitely be Kamika.
Anyway, NCB does equal National Commercial Bank in Jamaica too. Also here in Cayman, though the NCB here is part of the Jamaican bank, and its sort've small. I don't believe they do commercial banking activities, am not sure what they really do over here, except remittances back to Jamaica...
I too like the idea. I would steal it too, except I will let a Yardie who lives in Jamaica write about Jamaica's Independence in future. I would write about Cayman's independence except they aren't independent.
I do think we have a few black sand beaches in Jamaica, can't say I was really fond of them.
What are "Nine Mornings" and "red Ju-C"?
